Method to get unit resource requirement

[qqqbbb]

Is there a method that returns type and number of resource required to build a unit?

Off the top of my head I don't know.

But what I do know is that the game will tell you this when choosing a unit to build in a city.

That code is in ProductionPopup.lua (a very useful starting point for a lot of unit/building/project related questions)

Take a look in there and see how that does it.

ProductionPopup.lua uses city:CanTrain and city:IsCanPurchase but it's not exactly what I need.

Those control if a city can build a unit, you need the text that gets placed into the tooltips that tell you why the city can't build a unit just yet - look at the GetHelpTextForUnit() code (it's called in from InfoTooltipInclude.lua)

Found it. Game.GetNumResourceRequiredForUnit.
